The city of Guadalajara represents a unique perspective of Mexican culture and tradition. We have incorporated
extras into our TEFL Certificate program. To us, TEFL Certification in Mexico means also really allowing yourself
to experience and enjoy the finest aspects of Mexican culture. In order to enhance the TEFL learning experience
for our students, we also provide the following extra-curricular activities as an optional part of your learning.
You may choose the activities that are of most interest to you:
We are currently offering the following extra curricular activities as possible options:
Field trip excursions to places such as the city of Tequila, Jalisco, the birth-place of tequila. In
addition, you have the opportunity to visit the largest lake in Mexico, Lake Chapala. These field trips are
available year round for a minimal fee of US $20. We also offer free tours of Guadalajara or Tlaquepaque.
Guitar and Mexican dance lessons are also available. U.S. $45
Fine Mexican dining accompanied by live mariachi music at one of Guadalajara's gourmet restaurants.
U.S. $17.
Attendance to the world famous folkloric ballet of the University of Guadalajara. Truly a must-see
for culture lovers. Many of the most traditional dances of Mexico are represented in the beautiful Diana
Theatre U.S. $10.
For those students interested in dancing, we have made an arrangement with a local dance academy.
These dance lessons are conducted outside of the school with a qualified dance instructor. Students have the
choice of learning traditional dances (salsa, cumbia, etc) or learning traditional Mexican folk dancing.
The classes are taught privately and are approximately U.S. $15 per hour. Schedules vary and the
arrangements can be made upon the student´s arrival.
NOTE: All classes are taught by non English speakers, Spanish native speakers, and you will have the
opportunity to interact and practice your own Spanish.
While ITTO will make all of the necessary arrangements for these activities, students are asked to pay all fees
directly to the service provider.
